Locking device for electrical connector

摘要

A locking device for an electrical connector comprises an engaging rod defining an outer screw thread thereon for engaging with a bolt of a mating connector defining an inner screw thread therein, and an additional inserting rod inserted into the engaging rod. The engaging rod comprises a through hole and a pair of gradually narrowed slots disposed around an end thereof in communication with the through hole. The inserting rod is inserted into the through hole of the engaging rod to expand the slots whereby the outer screw thread of the engaging rod latchably engages the inner screw thread defined in a screw hole of the bolt thereby securing the electrical connector and the mating connector together.
